1. So many amazingly talented people 2. 9/80 schedule allows for every other Friday off 3. Very caring & very understanding of issues that arise in personal life. You are never guilt tripped for taking time off or missing a day of work. 4. Dozens and dozens of employee benefits besides the standard benefits package.

Cons

1. While a majority of the employees are incredibly friendly, at times you feel like a ghost when walking outside of your department. Even if I don't know someones name or title, I still smile/say hello and try to make small talk. Some employee's can't be bothered. 2. While working a 9/80 schedule has it's benefits, having to be at work by 7:30am is difficult when you consider having to take children to daycare/school and traffic. There is zero flexibility or leniency in hours. 3. Changes are made to departments/work flow process' by employees who have zero experience doing the jobs of those they are making changes too.

I did not realize that it was an appraisal interview until it got under way. When interview was scheduled, the scheduler said she was calling to schedule me for an interview. I took that to mean a job interview, which was how I prepared for it. Had I known it was an appraisal interview, I would have prepared differently. It would have made a difference in the types of questions I studied beforehand.
